Bodies will fly and the floor will quake when “The Winter Rumble” shakes Sweetwater Gym in late February.
Antrone Brewer, AKA Da Fireman, recently announced the wrestling event would be held Saturday, Feb. 23.
For the past two years, professional wrestling has invaded McDuffie County, drawing hundreds of cheering fans to the sport.
Each time, some of the proceeds have benefitted charity, and this time is no different, said Brewer. The event will benefit a local firefighter’s family.
“Christopher Lee Reynolds Jr. is six years old, and suffers from Down syndrome,” said Brewer. “This entire event is all about helping someone that needs help from the community. His family has been swamped with medical expenses and we would like to help them with some relief. Proceeds will be donated towards medical and specialized equipment for the Reynolds family.”
